This Kernel is based off the sources of AndreiLux Perseus Kernel (alpha35).
If you consider to thank me, please also consider to thank him http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1927852
This kernel only supports roms of android version 4.3.x (sammy and aosp) and 4.4.x!
You can dualboot any of those roms
if you were using this kernel on aosp based roms, and want to use another kernel, you need to reflash the rom, of course without any wipe, it's just to restore modified files
Features (changes compared to Perseus):
- merges samsung open source update12
- dual sound engine
- compiled with linaro gcc 4.8.3
- updated Linux Kernel base to 3.0.101
- updated block subsystem (i/o schedulers) to linux 3.4
- updated memory management subsystem to linux 3.4
- partial updated kernel main system to linux 3.4 (current work in progress)
- zram, zsmalloc and lowmemorykiller updated from 3.9
- DevilQ cpu governor (default)
- fiops v2 i/o scheduler
- working for Aosp and Sammy at once (Big thx to Gokhanmoral for making this possible)
- Portet Ezekeel's Touchwake Feature (from nexus s)
- Oc up to 2.0 Ghz
- Backport from Linux 3.5 smp driver parts
- Wifi driver updated from note3
- backported zswap from linux 3.13 (this replaces zram now)
- backported cpu-boost driver
- possibility to set high/low power mode for wifi when screen is off
- LulzactiveQ cpu governor (from siyahkernel, thx again to Gokhanmoral)
- Hotplug Cpu Governor
- Proportional Rate Reduction for TCP
http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_3.2#head-1c3e71416a9fdc2f59c1c251a97963f165302b6e
- improve memcopy/memmove
- Using Voodoo Sound and Boeffla Sound
- LED Control by yank555-lu
- ExFat support (thx to samsung for opensourcing the driver)
if your rom is based off PAC, Bam, Fusion, ... :
IMPORTANT: As per notice of 01.11.2013, my CM10.2 kernels do NOT support proprietary Custom Rom frameworks anymore. So if your Custom Rom did not implement the generic framework class framework-2.jar but his own naming convention, you will receive a boot loop. Do not cry about this here but advise your Custom rom cooker to fix this. I will not change this ever again.
The most prominent custom kernels for CM will follow the same approach (aligned between Yank555, Googy, LordBoeffla, Psndna, Temasek and me).
So please do pass this message along to your favorite ROM devs.
If they don't fix their rom, it won't be compatible with custom kernels any more!

Dualboot Faq:
For more detailed instructions, please take a look at this thread from RichMd (thank you for it):
Dualboot Faq thread
Important: if you want to use this kernel for dualboot, i highly recommend flashing my recovery as well.
General information about the recovery:
dualboot menu.
in this menu you can:
* create the secondary system partition (needed to be run once, if you want to install a second rom)
Install-zip menu:
you'll notice there is a new menu, where to select what you want to flash.
if you select kernel, rom or recovery, the zip gets installed as it is.
if you select zipt to pri./sec. filesystem, it is selfexplanary
if you select rom to secondary fs, the zip gets modified to install to the sec. fs. IF YOU WANT TO INSTALL IT TO PRIMARY FS LATER SOME TIME, YOU NEED TO REDOWNLOAD THE FILE!
if you select rom to primary filesystem, it gets installed there, and you can use the same zip later again.
How to install a second rom:
make sure you have already created ssecondary system partition! if not, go to dualboot menu and create it now (this may take some minutes)
The savest way is the way by using nandroids: if you don't have a nandroid already, create one now. Then just select your backup, and restore it to secondary filesystem.
you now should already be able to boot into primary or secondary rom (which are both the same now).
now you can install any other rom as primary.
if you want to install a new rom directly as secondary,
make sure there are no spaces in the filename!,
then just go to install zip. you'll notice there's a new menu at some point.
in this menu you can select where you want to install, and what type of file it is.
if you choose rom to sec. fs, your zip files itself gets modified to be installed to secondary fs. this may take a minute, because the files needs to get zipped again. Imporant: this file is permanently modified. if you think you need it later again, you should redownload it, because the modified one would always install as secondary.
installing a rom as primary, a zip to primary or zip to secondary fs, does not modify the zip.
Additional information:
roms coming with an aroma installer are hard to handle, as every dev can place own commands into it. It's impossible for me, to take care of every possibility. Because of this, it should be the best method, to flash a rom with aroma installer as primary one (and then move it to secondary, by using the nandroid method, if you want it to be secondary).

My links to current devil stuff
New devil recovery with f2fs support for system and cache (data partition to come later). Note you dont need f2fs to use the recovery or kernel but you do need the kernel and recovery to use f2fs. If you convert to f2fs and want to use a different recovery then you must format file systems back to ext4 before changing. Bad things will happen if you do not convert before changing recoveries. Also the rom you are flashing must have an installer script setup for f2fs. I will be updating all my roms to support f2fs when I do their next releases.

It should but it is untested. Dual boot is just a special recovery that allows you to run two roms without flashing or nanding between the two.

HI is there any method to convert the default PA kernel to ALL-F2FS supported kernel..??
Nexus 7 wifi Grouper.
Twrp 2.7.1.1
Manually converted /system,/cache,/data partitions to f2fs using TWRP recovery.
then adb sideloaded PA 4.4 RC2. and it doesnt boot (loop) and /system converted to ext4 partition.
i can use the lego kernel or i can convert PA ROM to all f2fs supported using app but it will install Lego Kernel.
But i want to use the default kernel from PA to use with f2fs.
is there any solution..??
Default kernel is Google kernel...
#stayparanoid
Yeah I know that.. But is it possible to tweak the kernel to include f2fs drivers in it..!!
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
We won't do it. You need to check the f2fs threads on what needs to be done but we will not support f2fs at this time which means we won't be patching or compiling anything extra to support it

Shift Lollipop Kernel
This kernel supports only Lollipop AOSP. Should support all roms but not sure about Slim, if it doesn't work for a ROM please upload the boot.img from the ROM and post it here and I will see about adding support. Basically this kernel was developed only for CyanideL ROM but has progressed into a decent standalone kernel from reports as I do not own this device, so I thought I would just go ahead and share it so it was known and people could use it for other Lollipop Roms since I keep the source updated for the ROM I figured a kernel with some features and up to date source would be worth posting. Hopefully you all enjoy it
CPU GOVERNORS: smartass, smartassV2, ondemand, powersave, interactiveX, performance, userspace, zzmoove, wheatley and nightmare
I/O GOVERNORS: noop, deadline, cfq, row, sio
default cpu governor: InteractiveX
default I/O governor: row
F2FS/EXT4
OverClock to 1881
CPU Voltage Control
GPU Step Control
Advanced TCP Controls
Faux Sound Mod
Quick Charge
Compiled with Linaro GCC 4.9.1
Install Instructions: Standard flash in recovery, wiping caches in recommended but usual shouldn't be required
Current version is 3.0

Top of my head I'm not sure and I'm not by my build machine to check the source. If it's not I can look into adding it tho. I have it in my they kernel source so I'm sure I can port it over
Thanks. I have a microsd that may be of dubious quality. It works best as exfat. I've found I have to be really cautious with it. I'm pretty sure I didn't try it with cyanide.
Doesn't seem to support exfat, but it's nice and smooth on the official Slim weekly.
Loving your kernel, hey I am wondering about f2fs, is it new? I tried formating my system and data to f2fs flashed shift v2.2 and didn't boot I tried this on cyanide L and I am a currently on it (ext4), if there are different steps I need to take please let me know other wise I am loving v3!!!

Shift 3.0 bootloops on CyanideL
I've been running CyanideL with the Shift kernel for a couple of months with no problems. The latest version (20150220) bootloops on me, though. I tried a dirty flash, then factory reset but either way it shows the Samsung flash screen, buzzes and then back. I tried flashing Shift 3.0 separately after this happened, as suggested by @TheGeekyNimrod, but that produced the same result. But then I flashed Shift 2.2 D2 over CyanideL-20150220, and now it's booting fine.
I tried to take a logcat while it was booting with adb logcat>logfile but I got the message -waiting for device- and nothing more. The logifle was empty. Is there another way to take a boottime logcat? My recovery is TWRP 2.8.4.0.
Thanks, @rogersb11, for all your work on this.

Yea this seems to be a very random issue. Geeky himself has this on a previous kernel I gave him. After failed boot you can boot straight to recovery and pull the last_kmsg. I can't remember exactly the command but a quick search will tell you. That's the kernel log

I tried this but there was no last_kmsg. I did get one from a successful boot with the 2.2-D2 kernel; that one said "no errors" at the bottom. But I guess it doesn't get far enough to even create the kmsg file with the 3.0 kernel. The last time I tried it stayed on the Samsung flash screen with the LED pulsing blue for about 10 minutes before I pulled the battery.

If it stays on the Samsung screen very long at all then it's just not gonna boot. Well that's unfortunate man, 3.0 is a massive improvement.

Cool stuff, I flashed the newest twrp recovery and latest modem/baseband NJ1 using Exodus rom from team Vanir http://www.vanir-exodus.net/exodus/d2att/ shift kernel 2.2 works sortof, zzmoove hardlocks the phone and xposed alpha won't work[works on exo kernel]. 3.0 is broken for me still on a clean flash the splash loads this time then after a bit the screen goes black, oddly enough touching the power button causes a vibrate but other then that phone won't wake. Phone is unresponsive from pc side using adb logcat etc when on 3.0 so I don't know how I would report any bugs.

Probably none of them do. Developers usually only implement F2FS if the device has slow write speeds on its built in eMMC, such as the original Nexus 7 (and a few others). Some devices have native F2FS support such as the Nexus 9 (which is why it gets its extremely high bench scores). However for this device, it has plenty fast storage already, so the benefit would be almost impossible for the human senses to notice. With all that said, I too would love to use F2FS on at least the cache partition.

Actually, if you install TWRP recovery from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...p-2-8-6-1-unofficial-sm-t800-805-807-t3074633
Then you can have F2FS support. You then just need to look for a rom that supports F2FS, or a kernel that does. I'm still looking myself, so not sure if any ROMs actually do support F2FS yet, but at least you already have F2FS format support. :good:

I would like to do benchmark test results for before and after F2FS. Curious how it compares to my Nexus 7. On cache it was a good performance increase, but on system it did nothing better. EXT4 seems to be the better file system for the system partition, at least on my Nexus 7.

The kernel I posted doesn't support f2fs on the system partition nor does my guide include it.
As you rightly stated the system partition does not benefit from f2fs as its read only. Ext4 is capable of high read speed.

Yeah agreed, EXT4 is slightly faster at reading, but just by a hair on my N7. However, on partitions that have write permissions, it can "sometimes" be three times faster at random writes. I been using F2FS since feb 2014 "religiously" on my Nexus 7 (and wont run a non-f2fs setup on it), so I am very well versed in its use. Legolas was the first one to bring it to custom Android (I know because I was one of his support techs helping users convert to it, until he disappeared that is lol. Then I started helping USBhost with CarbonROM), and was the first to release a F2FS app in the play store. He was also the first, and only individual, to have a Conversion app to convert your ROM to f2fs, which gave new life to my N7 and any ROM I tried back in 2014 (it did not support 5.0 though). Without F2FS, sadly my Nexus 7 is almost worthless.
If only I can find the many screenshot test results we've done with F2FS, it would come in handy here too. On the N7 its a night and day difference, but here this device is already plenty fast. Id love to see some insane results though.... If only Jaegeuk would develop a Windows driver already. I would like to use it for my Linux box, Windows and Android tbh, and format the sdcards with it, and maybe even USB storage drives to try and pick up on the write speeds a bit. Well see I guess...
My SkyHigh TW LL 5.0.2 kernels support both EXT4 and F2FS for DATA and CACHE partitions.
Note: You need to have supported base firmware for successful flash.

ANY ROM can support F2FS. Its just the Kernel that needs to be built with support.
It's possible to convert any partition using various scripts (adjusted to suit device) that are about. But the easiest way is to use ashyx F2FS recovery. It saves a lot of pain.

Yeah the roms i listed already have native support no scripts or anything because the f2fs lines have been added too the fstab. So all you need to do is format cache and data in twrp and your done.

Those ROMs probably use a kernel which has already been patched for F2FS and compiled in-line with the ROM.
Same goes for my SkyHigh kernel, but compiled on its own. All you need to do is format your relevant ROM partitions via script or supported F2FS TWRP. No difference to method except having to flash the kernel separately.

It's the same (similar) ramdisk fstab changes for Samsung based kernel as well, not just source. Edit: As I said, all you need to do to actual "ROM" is just format the relevant partitions.
I was reading up on the f2fs file system and I'm curious how many people are using it on their N5X. What are your experiences and what ROM / kernel are you using?
I'm thinking of reformatting data and cache to f2fs but not sure it will work with Pure Nexus / ElementalX as f2fs support isn't explicitly mentioned in the respective threads.
I would appreciate any input on the matter. Good idea or not really worth the effort?
